Several EPs followed as well as remixes, official and unofficial works.

Launching his own record label 99CHANTS, DCXXXIX A.C. marks a turning point in aesthetic and concept.
Ambient and drone in its core, August explores the visual and sonic work while aiming for a three-dimensional form of expression.
In an interview with XLR8R he says: “The piece is 60 min long and contains 24 tracks, which I see all linked together, forming one long breath.
As my most recent work takes inspiration from my Italian provenience, so does this album.
I go back in time, finding myself surrounded by the nature and ancient spirit of a small town in the middle of Italy – vision and sound to a time and space unknown”.
In September 2018 August performed a sold-out show at Elbphilharmonie, in his native city of Hamburg.
In October of the same year, August released his third album D’Angelo, on PIAS.
